HAND HOLDING TENSION!

Today was a fairly good day. In fact, I'd say it was a flat out good day. I got up at 8 and watched the remainder of Van Helsing, which I started last night. It's a really good movie which I wouldn't actually mind owning myself. Lots of shooting and Dracula, and Dracula's spawn and all. It was delightful. Then I showered (that's right Rabe, I was CLEAN!) and helped mum tidy the house a bit. I then read some of my book (which is absolutely thrilling) until it was time to go pick up Mark. When we were at Mark's Bracken and Bear and Rusty had a conspiracy and knocked me on my butt on the doorstep. However, as they are all cute puppies, I forgive them and like them just the same :) . We put up the Christmas tree today. I absolutely covered it in tinsel (or 'tinsel bits' as Mark refers to them as). It's still ugly though seeing as it's fake and short and all. We watched POA (which is full of hand-holding tension and WINSTONING on Hermione's part) until his parental units came out for dinner, which was lovely. And then they went home and I made a heroic effort to begin my chem lab and discovered that I can't do it because I don't have some crucial information. So I did some history w/s instead.

You know, I have realized that I have been rather pessimistic lately towards school and whatnot. I need to be more optomistic about these things, that way maybe I'll be inpired to work harder on them and get good marks. From here on in, I have decided that I like school, particularly math, physics and chemistry, and delight in doing my homework. I also enjoy and delight it tinsel and crunchy apples.

How true that is. You know, I think that if people knew half the things that I've done or said or regretted, they would really look at me in a different light. Good thing they don't. lol.
